Black tie jobs lyrics by Mark Knopfler

One deep river tracklist

released 2024 via British Grove / EMI Records
1. Two pairs of hands
2. Ahead of the game
3. Smart money
4. Scavengers yard
5. Black tie jobs lyrics
6. Tunnel 13
7. Janine
8. Watch me gone
9. Sweeter than the rain
10. Before my train comes
11. This one's not going to end well
12. One deep river

So sorry for your trouble
Tell me to take a walk
And I would understand
Of course, it's good to talk
Here, take my handkerchief
No, I don't need it back
Please don't worry

So sorry for your trouble
And I was wondering
And I would understand
If you might have one to hand
If you had a photograph?
Of course, I'd bring it back
Please don't worry

And I wonder, if I stay in this
How hard-boiled will I become?
As hard-boiled as some
My friends in the newsroom
The Colins and Bobs
All done their black-tie jobs

I have to go, so sorry
Walking back to the car
And I can hear your sobs
I hate these black-tie jobs
